"One of those dishes that could be breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Was also suggested you could serve with a garden salad (mixed leaves, tomato, cucumber, carrot, avocado or whatever vegies you like) and you could use your own mix of vegetables in the omelette but do use the chorizo as that adds the spice element.
